No doubt you'll get it cheaper from Book Depository closer to the release date.

Thanks Retro, that's an excellent idea.

“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.
- Sutta Nipata 3.725

Just ordered a copy. I already have the PTS version and refer to it and study it frequently. By far the best Nikaya, in my opinion. The last of the four primary Nikayas to be translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi, he has saved the best for last.

He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them.
But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion …
...
He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them … he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.John Stuart Mill

Last? And what about Digha?

Correct, as you and Tilt noted Maurice Walshe translated the Digha for Wisdom Publications. They all have that nice looking "Teachings of the Buddha" series design on all of the updated translations that I thought for a moment that Bhikkhu Bodhi translated that one too. That similar cover design and perhaps that I don't refer back to it as much as the other Nikayas, that I forgot who translated it.

Wonderful news! And you can download a 135 page pdf digital preview after ordering!

Bhikkhu Bodhi wrote:
"In AN, persons are as a rule not reduced to mere collections of aggregates, elements and sense-bases, but are treated as real centers of living experience engaged in a heartfelt quest for happiness and freedom from suffering."(from Intro to Samyutta Nikaya)

So far most of the suttas I like most are already on Access to Insight or Nyanaponika Thera's anthologies (Parts I, II & III) so I'm advising people to wait the few more months for Bhikkhu Bodhi's translation.

I'd like to use Bhikkhu Bodhi's Thematic Guide from the NDB Digital Preview pdf but the PTS version has a different chapter numbering system. Does anyone have a link regarding converting one to the other?
